Cervical cancer is most treatable when caught early, but early stages often have no symptoms. Routine Pap tests, HPV testing, and the HPV vaccine can significantly lower your risk.

If you’re unsure when your last screening was, now is a great time to check in with your provider and stay up to date.

📣 We’re Updating Our Practice Names on January 1, 2026!

Starr Regional Medical Group is excited to announce that several of our practices will soon feature new names that more clearly reflect their connection to Starr Regional Medical Center and the comprehensive services we provide.

Beginning January 1, 2026, all hospital‑employed practices will align under the Starr Regional Medical Group identity. As part of this transition, practices whose current names don’t show this affiliation—such as Athens Family Practice and Medical Associates of Athens—will adopt updated names that better represent their relationship with our organization.

In addition, Starr Cardiology Associates will become Starr Heart & Vascular Clinic, a name that highlights the full spectrum of cardiology and vascular care offered by our team.

These updates reflect our commitment to providing coordinated, patient‑centered care across our entire network. We look forward to continuing to serve you—now with names that make it even easier to recognize the care you trust.

Below are the names and locations of all Starr Regional Medical Group practices, those with name changes are specified:
• Athens Family Practice is now Starr Family Practice
711 Cook Drive, Suite 100, Athens
• Medical Associates of Athens is now Starr Medical Associates
711 Cook Drive, Suite 200, Athens
• Starr Cardiology Associates is now Starr Heart & Vascular Clinic
711 Cook Drive, Suite 220, Athens
• Starr Convenient Care
800 South White Street, Suite 4, Athens
• Starr Orthopedics & Sports Medicine

After more than 27 years of dedicated service to our community, we are honored to celebrate the retirement of Debbie Pease, FNP, from Athens Family Practice.

For nearly three decades, Debbie has been a trusted provider, a compassionate caregiver, and a steady source of support for countless patients and families throughout Athens and the surrounding areas. Her commitment to exceptional care, her willingness to go above and beyond, and her warm, reassuring presence have made a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of working with or being cared for by her.

Debbie leaves a legacy defined by clinical excellence, kindness, and a deep love for the people she served. While we will miss her greatly in our practice, we are excited to cheer her on as she begins this well earned new chapter.

Please join us in thanking Debbie for her remarkable 27 years of service and in wishing her a retirement filled with joy, relaxation, and all the things she loves most.

Congratulations, Debbie! Your Athens Family Practice family will always be grateful for the difference you've made.
